TAMID connects Cal students with Israel's innovation economy through three tracks: pro-bono consulting for Israeli startups in the Bay Area, a live investment fund focused on Israeli public equities, and a summer fellowship abroad. New members spend their first semester in a structured Education program covering finance, marketing, case competitions, and guest speakers before joining a track. Teams of 4-5 consultants work directly with founders on 10-12 week strategy engagements.
